I have seen and heard that many places, including this one: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30471035

Where it says" Still, the CDC calls the new strain a combination of pig, bird and human viruses for which people may have limited natural immunity."

In the early days I even saw cries of " Maybe it was engineered by terrorists", which I was hoping is a bunch of hooey. So far it seems to say this can happen naturally, just not very often.
